On the way back, I always felt like I was at a loss.

It was only 500,000 yuan, and I almost risked my life.

I always feel like this is never over.

But Li Shun acted as if nothing was wrong, and even talked and laughed on the way to send me back.

I listened word by word and answered twice from time to time.

"Okay, Master, thank you very much for this matter. Now my father has handed over all the family business. I will be able to take office in a short time. You must remember to come and take a look then."

I nodded perfunctorily.

I was really afraid that Cao Yingying would be noisy at home all day long, so I went directly to the coffin shop.

It's been more than half a month since I went to Li's house this time. The coffin shop has been renovated, and only the expansion of a basement has not yet been completed.

As soon as I got off the car, I saw people from the construction team gathered around, as if they were looking at something.

I saw Zhong Ling standing in the crowd at a glance, and she was also frowning.

"Sister Zhong, what happened?" I walked up to her and asked.

As soon as I made a sound, the contractor noticed that I was coming. He pushed aside the crowd around him and walked up to me.

"Boss Xu, you are finally here. Come and take a look. There is something underground in your house that cannot be dug!"

Zhong Ling and I looked at each other, and Zhong Ling shrugged at me. It seemed that this was something she had not expected.

I followed the contractor and walked forward.

The place where everyone was surrounded was a pit.

I stepped forward.

"Boss, this is it."

I looked around and found that part of the stone slab was exposed at the bottom of the dug hole, about one square meter in size.

I couldn't see clearly from the shore, so I simply jumped off and stepped on the stone slabs.

I knelt down and looked at the stone slab carefully.

The color is dull and ordinary, with nothing conspicuous except the words engraved on it.

I tried to identify the lines carved on it.

"Mr. Cao, here..."

When I saw the word "Cao", I was shocked and immediately groped around. This stone slab was not only big, it looked like it extended all the way under the floor of my house.

And this is obviously no ordinary slate.

I could feel something underneath, like a liquid, covering a whole layer.

I probably had some guesses in my mind and crawled out of the pit.

"You don't need to continue digging. Just fill the hole back. This place will be completed."

The people in the contracting team looked at me, and I looked at you, and finally nodded.

After returning to the shop, Zhong Ling asked: "What is it?"

I looked unhappy and whispered: "It looks like the top of a tomb."

"Then why don't you dig it up? Isn't this just a windfall?"

"There is a mechanism under this stone slab, and there is at least a layer of mercury. If it is dug out, everyone in our area will die."

And since this is the tomb of the Cao family, I had a vague feeling about it.

Zhong Ling touched her chin, looking thoughtful.

I'm a little afraid that she will dig into it. After all, this thing was dug out from under my shop. What if she gets interested and simply demolishes my house?

I changed the topic and said, "My shop will be open and the ribbon will be cut in two days. Sister Zhong, please remember to come and take a look."

She was noncommittal and smiled.

"I won't come here often after that because I'm afraid my family will be nagging me all the time. If anything happens, please contact your teacher Kong yourself. If you can't, come to me again."

I didn't ask much why and agreed.

"By the way, I saw this at the door of your house before. Look what it is."

With that said, Zhong Ling took out an envelope from her bag.

I took it.

This is a black envelope with no signature on it.

There is a rather advanced-looking fire paint seal in the middle as a seal.

At first glance, this is not a good thing.

"You'd better take it apart and take a look. This is a good thing." Zhong Ling noticed that my face was full of doubts and smiled.

I opened the envelope hesitantly.

There was actually a mobile phone inside, and it was the most old-fashioned kind.

I took out my phone with doubts and looked around.

"Jingle bell."

Suddenly the phone rang.

It was almost dark now, and when the phone rang, the indoor lights also flashed a few times.

Somewhat scary.

Before I had time to react, Zhong Ling had already taken the phone and pressed the answer button.

"Hello?"

A man's voice sounded familiar from the phone.

I tentatively said: "Hello? Who are you?"

The person on the other side of the phone stopped talking.

I asked again in confusion: "Hello? This is Xu Ji's Coffin Shop. What's going on?"

The other party hung up the phone directly this time.

I looked at Zhong Ling, and she smiled as if she was watching a good show: "It's really interesting, kid, something good is going to happen to you during this time."

I looked at her: "Why don't I believe it?"

But as if she didn't hear him at all, she turned around and left on her high heels.

It stands to reason that after he leaves, Xiaohua will pop out and ask me naggingly what happened recently.

But this time I called her several times, but there was no reply.

Even the big monk and Xiaozhi are not here.

"Hiss... weird."

So tonight, I can only do business with these ghosts.

I took out my phone and scrolled through it boredly.

Cao Yingying has sent me countless messages in the past two days. She seems to have endless things to say and wants to show me all the interesting things.

I ignored her bombardment today and scrolled down.

Feng Gang and others told me that Li Yan dropped out of school some time ago, and something big seemed to be happening to the Li family.

Feng Yu didn’t send me a single message during this period.

I feel a little lost for no reason.

Just when I was checking the homework and study materials sent to me by Han Lu, there was a knock on the door of the store.

“Tuk-tuk-tuk.”

The shop has installed a new door in the past two days, which is much stronger than before, and because of the Feng Shui formation created by Zhong Ling, it will take a lot of effort to break into this door.

I cleared my throat: "Ahem, come in."

As the sound fell, the door opened.

There was a pale white hand hanging on the door, no blood at all.

I asked gently: "What would the guest want?"

It seemed that this was her first time seeing me, so she seemed not used to it, and her face looked a little surprised.

She stared at me for a while, shook her head, and left.

I scratched the back of my head for no apparent reason.

Fortunately, the subsequent customers were as easy to deal with as before, and I was not embarrassed. It had been a long time since I had done this business, and I felt a little happy.

It's close to early morning.

Even the ghosts didn't go out at this time, and the shop was particularly deserted.

I walked out from behind the counter, stretched out, and prepared to go to the lounge.

Suddenly, the door was pushed open.

I immediately frowned and turned my head to look.

The visitor was dressed in black, and even had a black hood on his head.

I sat back in my seat and asked impatiently: "Our store is about to close. If you want anything, please tell me quickly."
Chapter completed!
